Evaluating the Baseline Quality Improvement Factors Affecting Discharge Readiness and Quality of Discharge Teaching in Patients
Abstract
This study measured the quality of discharge teaching and discharge readiness levels in ischemic stroke patients to understand the factors affecting the discharge. A total of 120 patients with mild-to-moderate ischemic stroke were recruited using simple random sampling. Three instruments, namely, a demographic data questionnaire, the readiness for hospital discharge scale, and the quality of discharge teaching scale, were used for data collection. Descriptive statistical analysis and parametric tests with a correlation matrix, one-way analysis of variance, and independent t-tests were used for data analysis, providing robust evidence that the quality of discharge teaching was strongly correlated with patient readiness (r = 0.625, p
